[QUOTE="MuskyManiac, post: 238465, member: 381"] Just bought a new 2.7 L F150 about a month ago. My old truck was a 2010 with the 5.4 L V8. I haven't towed anything with the new truck yet, put as far as acceleration and snappiness, this new truck absolutely kills my old one. Probably has something to do with a 10 speed transmission as well. It is the most quiet and smooth engine in a truck I have ever had. So in my opinion so far so good. I don't see any issues pulling my aluminum boat. Gas mileage is nothing to brag about in town, my V8 got me around 12, the ecoboost gets me 15.5. Haven't taken it for a trip on the highway yet. One thing I really didn't like was the auto stop/start. When you pull up to a stop light the truck would shut off and when you release the break it would start again. Very annoying. You can disable it by hitting a button on the dash, but you had to do it every time you restarted the vehicle. So I downloaded Forscan and disabled it permanently. Also did a couple other minor mods like having the foglights stay on with the high beams, disabled door ajar chime, increased the lane-change number of blinks, and disabled auto lock. [/QUOTE]
